Mounting local file system failed

[jet_1974]

Hi,

Ovb shared folder is failing to mount. I have attached the screenshot for the following issue.

I tried from the virtual box docs
the following command it didn't work. This used to work in the old version automatically without errors in 5.0. ovb_shared drive in the following mount point /dev/sf_ovbshared


i tried manually but it fails.
mount -t vboxsf ovb_shared /dev

fails add it to the /etc/fstab still fails.

mounting failed with error: No such devices
What do i do?



Given below is the docs from virtual box user manual.
4.3.1 Manual Mounting
You can mount the shared folder from inside a VM, in the same way as you would mount an
ordinary network share:

• In a Linux guest, use the following command:
mount -t vboxsf [-o OPTIONS] sharename mountpoint
To mount a shared folder during boot, add the following entry to /etc/fstab:
sharename mountpoint vboxsf defaults 0 0

Attached is the screenshot i am not sure if its related to the ovb_Shared folder but it looks like its failing there.
